Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar (divided into 3/4 cup and 1/4 cup)
- 1 egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup frozen raspberries (if using frozen, thaw them on paper towels for 3 hours)
Instructions:
-
Prepare Raspberries:
- Note: If using frozen raspberries, ensure to thaw them on paper towels for 3 hours before placing them on the cake batter.
-
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Grease a 9″x9″ baking pan to prevent sticking.
-
Cream Butter and Sugar:
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and 3/4 cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Incorporate Egg:
- Add the egg to the creamed mixture and beat well until fully combined.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
Alternate Mixing:
- Alternate adding portions of the dry mixture and buttermilk to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition, until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
-
Pour Batter and Add Raspberries:
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, ensuring it spreads evenly.
- Arrange the fresh raspberries on top of the batter, starting from the center and placing them in concentric circles until the cake is covered. The raspberries will hold their shape and position as the cake bakes.
-
Sprinkle with Sugar:
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar evenly over the raspberries.
-
Bake:
- Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Serve:
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
- Serve slices of the Raspberry Cake with a dollop of whipped topping or whipped cream on the side for added indulgence.
